We live quite a piece a ways from you (eastern Canada) so we have to deal with ground freezing winter. Not sure what your winter climate is like? Because of our winters ,if you can't get it reseeded to grasses by late August at the latest in our climate you'd be better off waiting till spring as it likeky wouldn't get rooted well enough to survive the winter. In which case I probably wouldn't use a cover crop but if you did use a lighte rate on the cereal ie. 70 pounds oats an acre. If you wait till spring you certainly could go with a cereal crop and underseed with grasses. Keep in mind if you go too heavy with wheat or oats it might smother the grasses especially if it gets flattened before harvest. You also could make silage out of oats or barley at the dough stage of grain maturing if you wanted. Using a herbicide like roundup or possibly 2 4D in the fall then plow and seed in the spring would clean up most of the weeds. If you do plant a cereal crop the grain spray will keep it clean so it'll do well the following year.
